Mac Mini M2 dual monitor issue

[Atkinsm1]

Hello all! So I’ll be brief and sorry if this already posted somewhere.

I recently bought the Mac Mini M2 and had the plan to use it in conjunction with my work laptop and docking station by simply swapping the USB-C cable between the two. I have a dual monitor setup through a dell docking station, but when I plug it into my Mac Mini, it recognizes them as one monitor and forces them to be mirrored. My work laptop doesn’t allow me to download anything to it. And I’ve seen the DisplayLink options but I’m under this will work. Does anyone know of a workaround for this Mac conundrum? Thanks!!!
